Château de Villette stands in Glaire (Ardennes), in the Grand Est region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: second half of the 16th century, fourth quarter of the 18th century, second half of the 19th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

Standing on the banks of the Meuse at Glaire, the château de Villette bears the marks of a long transformation, from a fortified 16th-century dwelling into a more comfortable country residence over the following centuries. Visitors can see two round towers flanking the main façade, a projecting wing on the river side with a wrought-iron balcony, and a small adjoining church where a bishop who took refuge here during the French Revolution is buried. The estate remains privately occupied and now offers event hire and guest lodging.
